Pest Control - "There's a rat in me workshop what ahm a gonna do.... "

I'm sure I've probably eaten it more than once in the takeaways round my end

 

The only real fix is to keep a terrier in the barn where the cars are Or at very least a decent sized cat. Animal shelters would be happy i would hope for you to rehome a cat or two surely?. If they get a good hold the rats will eat anything.

 

If you can source lanate poison..that's the best. Let them try-->dead in 5 seconds time

 

You'll never seal it up tight enough to stop them getting in, even getting rid of the brambles won't stop them.

I like the idea of that 4 rat trap you posted in the OP Mike!

 

"Sewer rat might taste like pumpkin pie...but I wouldn't eat the filthy motherf*ckers..."

 

Good line, Jules!

 

If it's harder to get into mine then hopefully they'll go in the next barn. It'll also help if I don't spill any more veg oil on the floor!

 

A smear of peanut butter is best for the traps

I get them in the garage, they go mad for my fishing baits

 

Scores on the doors from tonight... one trap tripped, no corpses or bits of beastie. More bait taken though.

 

One down!

 

haha lol

 

Christmas is cancelled for Mr Ratty No tasty wiring looms and classic upholstery in his stocking.

 

Those Japanese really know how to make a rat trap eh?

 

I've just been down to my garage & both traps have no bait

little *******s! These rodents are smart

 

Merry Christmas to the mouse in my garage lol

 

Nice festive bit of claret coming out of him there

 

air rifle is your best friend if you have the time to wait,head shot @ 25 yards

 

No rifle, no time

Checked the traps yesterday after a few days away. No change. Maybe the poison got the ones that the traps didn't.

 

Saw this one the other day


Similar to this one:

Apparently mice love peanut butter!

 

Can't make up my mind if that's more or less humane than the jaw traps I've got. Less risk to other animals than from putting poison down... for sure.
